Im so glad i didnt vote for Obama, You know its makes me so mad they want insurance to cover abortions, If there gonna do that what about women like me that has been tryin for a baby for years & cant afford infertility treatments, Insurance dosent cover it all just some test, so I want some insurance that will cover me to have treatments to get pregnant.

House Speaker Pelosi wants to pass the massive House health care bill (HR 3962). It contains federal funding of abortion-on-demand. She wants it passed under a "closed rule". That is a procedure that would not allow any amendments to the bill on the House floor, including any that would prevent federal funding of abortion. In order to get a vote on the abortion funding provision, representatives would have to vote "no" on the no-amendment procedure (which is called "the rule").
